Molfeat - 分子特征化中心

概述

Molfeat 是一个全面的 Python 分子特征化库,统一了 100 多种预训练嵌入和手工特征化器。将化学结构(SMILES 字符串或 RDKit 分子)转换为机器学习任务的数值表示,包括 QSAR 建模、虚拟筛选、相似性搜索和深度学习应用。特色包括快速并行处理、scikit-learn 兼容转换器和内置缓存。

版本说明: 示例针对 molfeat 0.11.0(PyPI 稳定版,2025 年 5 月)。需要 Python 3.9–3.10(requires-python 上限低于 3.11)。依赖 datamol ≥0.8.0 和 PyTorch ≥1.13。自 0.8.7 起,推荐使用 datamol Mol 对象代替原始 rdkit.Chem.Mol。自 0.10.1 起,指纹计算器内部使用 RDKit 的 rdFingerprintGenerator API。自 0.11.0 起,预训练模型加载到内存中,基础模型自动设置为 PyTorch 评估模式。

何时使用本技能

本技能应在以下场景中使用:

  • 分子机器学习:构建 QSAR/QSPR 模型、属性预测
  • 虚拟筛选:对化合物库进行生物活性排序
  • 相似性搜索:寻找结构相似的分子
  • 化学空间分析:聚类、可视化、降维
  • 深度学习:在分子数据上训练神经网络
  • 特征化流水线:将 SMILES 转换为 ML 就绪表示
  • 化学信息学:任何需要分子特征提取的任务

安装

使用 Python 3.9 或 3.10 环境(截至 0.11.0,molfeat 不能在 3.11+ 上安装):

uv pip install "molfeat==0.11.0"

# 包含所有可通过 pip 安装的可选依赖
uv pip install "molfeat[all]==0.11.0"

可选依赖扩展(PyPI):

  • molfeat[dgl] — GNN 模型(GIN 变体);上游推荐 dgl<=2.0(新版 DGL 中存在 graphbolt 问题)
  • molfeat[graphormer] — Graphormer 模型
  • molfeat[transformer] — ChemBERTa、ChemGPT、MolT5
  • molfeat[fcd] — FCD 描述符
  • molfeat[pyg] — PyTorch Geometric 特征化器
  • molfeat[viz] — NGLView 可视化小部件

外部特征化器: MAP4 未包含在 molfeat 扩展中——请从 reymond-group/map4 单独安装。某些重量级依赖项(DGL、dgllife、graphormer-pretrained)可通过 conda-forge 更轻松地安装;请参阅 可选依赖项。

核心概念

Molfeat 将特征化组织为三个层次类:

1. 计算器 (molfeat.calc)

可调用对象,将单个分子转换为特征向量。接受 RDKit Chem.Mol 对象或 SMILES 字符串。

计算器适用于:

  • 单分子特征化
  • 自定义处理循环
  • 直接特征计算

示例:

from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator

calc = FPCalculator("ecfp", radius=3, fpSize=2048)
features = calc("CCO")  # 返回 numpy 数组 (2048,)

2. 转换器 (molfeat.trans)

兼容 scikit-learn 的转换器,封装计算器以进行批量处理并支持并行化。

转换器适用于:

  • 分子数据集的批量特征化
  • 与 scikit-learn 流水线集成
  • 并行处理(自动 CPU 利用率)

示例:

from molfeat.trans import MoleculeTransformer
from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator

transformer = MoleculeTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)
features = transformer(smiles_list)  # 并行处理

3. 预训练转换器 (molfeat.trans.pretrained)

用于深度学习模型的专用转换器,支持批量推理和缓存。

预训练转换器适用于:

  • 最先进的分子嵌入
  • 从大型化学数据集进行迁移学习
  • 深度学习特征提取

示例:

from molfeat.trans.pretrained import PretrainedMolTransformer

transformer = PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM", n_jobs=-1)
embeddings = transformer(smiles_list)  # 深度学习嵌入

快速入门工作流

基础特征化

import datamol as dm
from molfeat.calc import FPCalculator
from molfeat.trans import MoleculeTransformer

# 加载分子数据
smiles = ["CCO", "CC(=O)O", "c1ccccc1", "CC(C)O"]

# 创建计算器和转换器
calc = FPCalculator("ecfp", radius=3)
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(calc, n_jobs=-1)

# 特征化分子
features = transformer(smiles)
print(f"形状: {features.shape}")  # (4, 2048)

保存和加载配置

# 保存特征化器配置以实现可重复性
transformer.to_state_yaml_file("featurizer_config.yml")

# 重新加载精确配置
loaded = MoleculeTransformer.from_state_yaml_file("featurizer_config.yml")

优雅处理错误

# 处理可能含有无效 SMILES 的数据集
transformer = MoleculeTransformer(
    calc,
    n_jobs=-1,
    ignore_errors=True,  # 失败时继续
    verbose=True          # 记录错误详情
)

features = transformer(smiles_with_errors)
# 对于失败的分子返回 None

选择特征化器和常见工作流

按任务选择特征化器——传统 ML(RF、SVM、XGBoost)、深度学习、相似性搜索和基于药效团的方法——以及用于 QSAR 模型构建、虚拟筛选、相似性搜索、scikit-learn 流水线集成和比较多个特征化器的详细工作流,请参见 references/choosing_a_featurizer.md。

完整的特征化器列表位于 references/available_featurizers.md;更多示例位于 references/examples.md。

发现可用特征化器

使用 ModelStore 探索所有可用特征化器:

from molfeat.store.modelstore import ModelStore

store = ModelStore()

# 列出所有可用模型
all_models = store.available_models
print(f"特征化器总数: {len(all_models)}")

# 搜索特定模型
chemberta_models = store.search(name="ChemBERTa")
for model in chemberta_models:
    print(f"- {model.name}: {model.description}")

# 获取使用信息
model_card = store.search(name="ChemBERTa-77M-MLM")[0]
model_card.usage()  # 显示使用示例

# 加载模型
transformer = store.load("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM")

高级功能

自定义预处理

class CustomTransformer(MoleculeTransformer):
    def preprocess(self, mol):
        """自定义预处理流水线"""
        if isinstance(mol, str):
            mol = dm.to_mol(mol)
        mol = dm.standardize_mol(mol)
        mol = dm.remove_salts(mol)
        return mol

transformer = CustomTransformer(FPCalculator("ecfp"), n_jobs=-1)

批量处理大型数据集

import numpy as np

def featurize_in_chunks(smiles_list, transformer, chunk_size=10000):
    """分块处理大型数据集以管理内存"""
    all_features = []
    for i in range(0, len(smiles_list), chunk_size):
        chunk = smiles_list[i:i+chunk_size]
        features = transformer(chunk)
        all_features.append(features)
    return np.vstack(all_features)

缓存昂贵的嵌入

尽可能优先使用 molfeat 内置的预训练模型缓存。对于自定义嵌入缓存,请使用 NumPy 数组代替 pickle(pickle 在加载不受信任的文件时可能执行任意代码):

import numpy as np
from pathlib import Path

cache_file = Path("embeddings_cache.npz")  # 项目下的固定路径
transformer = PretrainedMolTransformer("ChemBERTa-77M-MLM", n_jobs=-1)

if cache_file.exists():
    embeddings = np.load(cache_file)["embeddings"]
else:
    embeddings = transformer(smiles_list)
    np.savez(cache_file, embeddings=embeddings)

性能提示

  1. 使用并行化:设置 n_jobs=-1 以利用所有 CPU 核心
  2. 批量处理:一次处理多个分子,而不是循环处理
  3. 选择合适的特征化器:指纹比深度学习模型更快
  4. 缓存预训练模型:利用内置缓存进行重复使用
  5. 使用 float32:在精度允许时设置 dtype=np.float32
  6. 高效处理错误:对大型数据集使用 ignore_errors=True

    ignore_errors=True,
    verbose=True
)

大型数据集的内存问题

对于超过 10 万个分子的数据集,请分块处理或使用流式方法。

预训练模型依赖项

某些模型需要额外的包。安装特定扩展(固定版本以实现可重复性):

uv pip install "molfeat[transformer]==0.11.0"  # 用于 ChemBERTa/ChemGPT
uv pip install "molfeat[dgl]==0.11.0"          # 用于 GIN 模型
uv pip install "molfeat[graphormer]==0.11.0"   # 用于 Graphormer

可重复性

保存精确配置并记录版本:

transformer.to_state_yaml_file("config.yml")
import molfeat
print(f"molfeat 版本: {molfeat.__version__}")

Use whenever the user has bulk RNA-seq reads or quant output and wants a complete, reproducible differential-expression workflow — e.g.

cellxgene-census

Query the CZ CELLxGENE Census programmatically for versioned public single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data. Use when you need population-scale cell metadata, gene expression slices, Census summary counts, source H5AD URIs/downloads, embeddings, spatial Census data, or reference atlas comparisons across organisms, tissues, diseases, assays, and cell types. For analyzing your own local single-cell data use scanpy, anndata, or scvi-tools.

Comprehensive citation management for academic research. Search OpenAlex, PubMed, and Google Scholar for papers, extract accurate metadata, validate citations, and generate properly formatted BibTeX entries. This skill should be used when you need to find papers, verify citation information, convert DOIs to BibTeX, or ensure reference accuracy in scientific writing.

clinical-decision-support

Prepare and validate research-only clinical decision-support evaluation, evidence-profile, cohort, survival, biomarker/model, privacy, and governance artifacts. Use for aggregate or synthetic research documentation and traceability—not patient care or live clinical operation.

clinical-reports

Create safety-bounded draft structures and run local deterministic checks for clinical case, diagnostic, trial, safety, and aggregate research reports. Use only with synthetic, de-identified, or aggregate inputs and verified source-fact manifests; every output requires qualified review.
